The international elite of the pizza world celebrates its premiere in the capital
Pizza Fest Berlin 2025 brings exclusive pizza art up close and personal to the capital. Visitors will have the unique opportunity not only to sample exceptional pizza variations, but also to learn from the best pizzaiolos/as in the world.
International pizza champions such as Daniele Gagliotta (winner of the Pizza DOC Championship), Eleonora Orlando (star of the TV series ‘Pizza Girls’) and other renowned pizza chefs from Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and the USA will be demonstrating their craft. They will provide exclusive insights into their techniques, secret recipes and the future of the art of pizza - a unique experience that is otherwise only possible at exclusive industry events or in Michelin-starred restaurants.
‘This festival is a sign of how diverse and passionate the world of pizza is - and that it is no longer just characterised by men. We are bringing together our creativity, our craftsmanship and our love of detail. I am particularly pleased to be part of an event that shows that pizza knows no boundaries - neither in terms of flavour nor in the person who creates it,’ says Eleonora Orlando, TV star, CEO & Pizza Chef from Amsterdam and also live on site.
Vincenzo Abbate adds: ‘This festival is unique. We not only want to serve people excellent pizza, but also make our passion for quality and innovation tangible. This is where tradition meets modern influences - and that's what makes the art of pizza so special.’
As a special guest, well-known TV chef and judge Felicitas Then (‘MasterChef’, ‘Abenteuer Leben’) will be the official presenter on Saturday. With her charismatic manner, she will guide the audience through the programme, introduce the Pizzaiolos/as and accompany cooking shows and interviews.
